The No.9 Bus to Utopia: How One Man's Extraordinary Journey Led to a Quiet Revolution by David Bramwell

4.0

I enjoyed this book, for many reasons. David Bramwell is very candid regarding his relationship breakup, which was clearly painful, not least of all in his acceptance of where he had gone wrong, and wiser choices he might have made. He then travels around the globe, in search of Utopia and is equally open and honest about what he finds, both in himself and the people he meets. He combines sharp insight with generous humour. It's not simply a travelogue, he has also investigated the concept of Eutopia in the areas of Philosophy, History and Literature. Always engaging and interesting, he also presents us with conclusions and suggestions , both on a personal and societal level.
